Topic: Restoring Inside Raer View Mirror (Read 10680 times)

I have seen some "restored" Inside rear view mirrors for Sale. They talk about the Glass being "resilvered", does anyone here know of a place that does this service? My original mirror is in good shape, except for the plating. Thanks!

Thanks for the info. Guys! I got hold of Paragon, they only stocked the Glass for '67 'Vette, but I took the chance that they were the same. They are the same, I recieved the glass today, it's in and looks GREAT ! Just wanted to Thank you guys that helped.

I tried to get the rubber trim off mine but I couldn't. I didn't want to break it. It's not as pliable as when it was new. So I've just left my original mirror alone, even though it needs to be re-silvered.

Mine was still pretty pliable. I ran a small flat screwdriver around the edge of the glass. VERY CAREFULLY. I started across the bottom and worked my way up the sides. There is only a small lip there. Once you are most of the way up the sides, you will be able to just pull the top out. I didn't try to take the Gray rubber out of the housing. I never found a way to do that, and in the end, I didn't have to. To put it back together I just did the reverse, using a Popsickle stick so as not to scratch the Glass. I am attaching a photo of finished project.(Not the best color)
